Re: [Astlinux-users] MiniPCI PRI for 5501
at BeroNet seem also a miniPCI E1 in the works, see: http://www.beronet.com/content/view/73/91/lang,en/ In case anyone was interested in the release of this product, Beronet have just told me they are no longer going to produce it. I think that leaves the Junghanns as the only minPCI PRI on the market. Cheers Tom Do you especially need miniPCI?

Re: [Astlinux-users] MiniPCI PRI for 5501
Do you especially need miniPCI? Yes, because, together with a PCI analogue card, it will all fit in a standard net5501 case. Tom And with the Berofix you could have it as small additional external box, which has slots for 2 modules.

Re: [Astlinux-users] PRI power requirements
Oh, ok. Around the office we pretty much mix and match our power supplies, so I wasn't quite sure. I'm sure you'll have power enough for just the PRI alone, but I've never tried mounting two PCI cards on a net5501, nor have I tried using the line cards in a Soekris. I suppose you'll find out soon enough whether or not 1.5A will do the job. Please let the list know your results. Josh Tom Chadwin wrote: If you're just using the 1.0A power supply, especially with a PRI and FXS/FXO line card, you might run into trouble. The standard PSU is 1.5A. The more powerful one is 3.0A. Looks as though the standard one should do the job, in that case? Thanks for the help Tom -- Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!

Re: [Astlinux-users] PRI power requirements
All of their power comes off the PCI bus, which is fairly limited FXS circuits in PCI cards require additional 12VDC not available on the bus, and supplied from, in many machines, the Hard Drive power connector John Novack Philip A.

Re: [Astlinux-users] PRI power requirements
With solid-state DC/DC converters, so can increase the voltage (that's how PoE generates 48VDC on a 12V power supply). The main issue is current. -Philip John Novack wrote: All of their power comes off the PCI bus, which is fairly limited FXS circuits in PCI cards require additional 12VDC not available on the bus, and supplied from, in many machines, the Hard Drive power connector John Novack Philip A.
